This morning our special guest for theSunday Interviewon the ever popular Little Human Being Blog is:

The Little Warrior

Little Human Being - LHB: Good morning and welcome to the LHB studios.

The Little Warrior - TLW: Thank you, its' great to be here on this sunny Sunday.

LHB: So, what's your story?

TLW: uHmmm, The Little Warrior and the battlefield of the Self.

LHB: Where can we get hold of this little story of yours?

TLW: We are in the process of releasing The Little Warrior and the battlefield of the Self throughout cyberspace as an audio file on SoundCloud and as a YouTube video.

LHB: What is the story about?

TLW: It is about me, a young boy who lives in a jungle far far and away. Like any young boy in my tribe I was sent out into the jungle alone for one month - to become a man.

LHB: Did you become a man? You look like a little boy with a headband wearing yellow underpants.

TLW: I did.

LHB: Maybe your illustrator could have made you look more hard core. Do you not think that a mustache and a few weapons would make you more of a warrior?

TLW: not really

LHB: Today's best films and books are driven by violent special effects, elaborate sex scenes and/or unfathomably complicated conspiracies. I have had the pleasure of reading your little adventure and must say that for a story about a warrior and battlefields there was very little of either.

TLW: In a very simple way my little story is about courage. It is about courage, fortitude and strength in the face of a man's ever present weakness.

LHB: Why "the battlefield of the Self."

TLW: To quote a passage from my little story;

"Remember my friend, no matter where your journey takes you it is simply incidental, for the outer world is only a microcosmic reflection of the heart's inner domain."

LHB: So you are saying that reality only truly exists within?

TLW: The true enemies of any human being lie within. The true challenges of life can only be faced if you are willing to gather your courage and embrace your strength. Then you venture, as a warrior, into yourself to face these challenges.

LHB: What kind of enemies can one expect to encounter?

TLW: The enemies are different for everyone, but if you are willing to look with the eyes of truth you will encounter many challenges. You will find resentment, doubt and you will come up against anger. You will cross paths with jealousy and you will face fear.

LHB: Wouldn't it just be easier to find an external enemy and declare war on them?

TLW: Some nations take that approach, but inner peace can not be found through violence.

LHB: You call yourself a warrior, but what weapons do you use? Where could I get the weapons necessary to take a stand against fear or to conquer resentment.

TLW: Every single human being on this little planet of ours has access to love. We all have access to forgiveness. We all have access to patience. With patience, forgiveness and love there is nothing that can stand in your way.

LHB: In conclusion: You came all the way from a jungle far far and away to share the message that with patience, forgiveness, love and a bit of courage we can face any of the challenges that lie within.

TLW: :)

LHB: Mr Little Warrior on behalf of Little Human Being and our thousands of readers I would like to thank you for sharing your little story with us today.

TLW: It was a pleasure...

Join us next week Sunday for another mind altering interview.

Our special guest will be the Little Sage and he will be speaking about his story - The Little Sage and the hole in the whole of the world.

One of the joys of living on a farm is the different creatures that you encounter.
Yesterday I was delegated the task of removing 2 hand sized hairy spiders from the ceiling - no problem. A few hours later sitting behind this here blog, a small hairy creature started tickling the underside of my left foot!

I knew it could only be one of those big hairys coming to thank me.

I slowly raised my left foot, but could feel him under my right. I managed to get both feet out of Mr Arachnid's venomous way and peered under my chair...

What a surprise to be greeted by a little field mouse. Beautiful little black eyes, timid and shy.

She has been sneaking under the front door, making her way to the kitchen and eating the cats food. Now that is what I call living on the edge.

I have been trying to find the gift in this little experience. It's not every day that a field mouse comes to tickle your toes.

Naturally, the experience is the gift, but my field mouse also showed me a little more...

I think it has something to do with courage, eating well and tickling those around you.

Did you know that there are still people on this planet who think that the sun only rises in the morning?
Did you know that there are still human beings who believe that sunsets are reserved for evenings?

Well, for those who have forgotten the miracle of our existence, a little magician has come to remind all that the sun sets every second of every day somewhere on this little planet of ours. To make things even more amazing... the sun is also rising somewhere on our little planet at the very same time.

Yes, its true...
The sun rises and sets simultaneously every second of every day.

Reine Ackermann has been writing short stories for a few years. This blog is is the home of micro stories filled with what he has come to call micro-wisdom. Micro-wisdom is the wisdom inherent in each and every human being. Each and every person has the ability to reach within and access this wisdom. Still latent in society as a whole, it is accessible to any human who desires or needs it.

Currently humanity stands divided. We divide ourselves by almost any means possible. We use race to divide, we use colour to divide, we use nationality to divide, we use politics to divide, we even use opinions to divide.

Little Human Being and this here blog are here to remind people that we may be divided by external forces, but within ourselves we shall always be united - by our humanity.

It is our humanity that gives us love, it is our humanity that gives us courage and it is our humanity that will set us free...

We are all simply human beings making our way through this little experience we have come to call LIFE.

In a world where financial indicators and political strategy dominate.

On a planet where the ruling species wages war to secure resources and impose will.

As the economic system begins to show the cracks of greed and excess, a host of little butterflies have decided to grace the pages of the little human being blog.

Masters of transformation, butterflies have a gift to share. They have a gift to bestow upon humanity.

For each and every butterfly was at some stage in the past a lowly worm. A worm eating all in its path. A lonely little insect that only looks after its own interests. Worms do not share, worms do not care. A worm has one purpose and that is to consume.

So, how does a worm come to be a butterfly?

The truth is that we do not know. Some of our best scientists have made up words like "metamorphosis" and "transformation" to help them hide their lack of understanding. You know this to be true because you can read as many books as you wish about the subject and you still will not be able to turn into a butterfly.

You may understand something with you mind, but theory is a far cry from the truth of reality.

The butterflies have come to let us know that there is a process of transformation that awaits all of mankind.

Within each and every person lies an all consuming worm, but within each and every little human being there lies the potential for change. The potential for transformation.

Today the butterflies have metamorphed into your world to remind you of the joy and beauty that awaits when you decide to spread your wings.

Once upon a time in a land far far and away there lived a great chicken farmer. The great chicken farmer was a man dedicated to love. Love is what inspired the chicken farmer, love is what got him out of bed every morning.

"I love money."

"I love my cars."

"I love profit margins."

"I love more profits."

Like a true follower of the highest teachings the chicken farmer knew only love.

The great chicken farmer used a secret technique to maximize his profits. Every evening before bed he would imagine himself driving only the biggest fastest cars. Every day upon waking the great chicken farmer would see, feel and simply know that his chicken empire was getting bigger and better, better and bigger.

As you think, so it shall be. The great chicken farmer's love and greatness grew and grew. Money, profits, cars and more chickens were the order of the day.

The chickens had it tough. There were no luxuries. No medical, no retirement fund, no company cars and the housing scheme was reminiscent of an overcrowded P.O.W. camp.

The great chicken farmer did not care about chickens. Since he was a young man the he had nurtured only love and greatness.

If you are a human being and you are reading this blog the chances are surprisingly good that you live in a city.
Every day at rush hour the world slows down as human beings across the planet take time to get to know the person in the car beside them. For those who have chosen to live in cities with subway and tube stations, rush hour is a time of intimacy as you herd yourselves into little carriages that take you homeward.
People are incredibly cleaver and seem to have the answers to any and all problems. Could it be that there are some problems that truly do not need solving?

When last did you watch a bee gathering nectar?
When last did you see a butterfly skipping its way from flower to flower?
When last did you watch a bird making a nest?

Keys are an integral part of our existence. We have keys and passwords for almost everything in our lives.
Your internet experience is filled with passwords. Your office, home and car are all protected with keys.
There are keys of resonance that protect a lover's heart. There are keys of integrity that grant access to friendships and family.

If you could have any key what would it be?

We spend our lives looking for answers, we dedicate ourselves to uncovering secrets.

Why not forget about answers and dismiss secrets?
If you had the correct key you could access any and All.

He was the top cat.
Every cat in the neighborhood loved Steve. All the neighbors, even the birds loved Steve.

Steve spent his days climbing trees, eating, purring and sleeping. When he wasn't involved in one of those activities he was usually on his was to partaking in one of the aforementioned activities in another location.

Life was good...

One day Steve was on his way to engaging in one of those aforementioned activities. As Steve was crossing the road he looked left and then right, or was it right and then left. Nobody really knows.

What we do know is that Steve got it wrong.

What we do know is that a large SUV sent Steve to that place where all cats and cute little furry animals go:

The beginning and end of Eternity.

Our pets are amazing little beings. They come into our lives, share their magic and leave when the time is right. This post is for all the furry little animals that have helped make our human experience just a little more special.

This morning our special guest for theSunday Interviewon the ever popular Little Human Being Blog is:

The Little Orange Bird of Happiness.

Little Human Being - LHB: I would like to welcome you to our offices this morning, it is truly a happy occasion having you here.

Little Orange Bird of Happiness - LOBoH: Cheep cheep...

LHB: How would you describe yourself and what you do?

LOBoH: I am the feathered manifestation of the essence of Happiness. It is my duty to ensure that happiness is available to any and all.

LHB: Why then is there so much sadness in the world?

LOBoH: Reine, that is a very good question. I have spent lifetimes asking that same question and still do not have the complete answer. I used to think that you human beings were simply not as intelligent as other life forms. Later I came to the conclusion that you were all fast asleep, but now i realize that there are 2 little factors that unite to cause all the confusion.

LHB: And they would be?

LOBoH: Time and Place

LHB: I do not understand?

LOBoH: Oh, fear not, it is very easy to understand. It is the doing part that you all seem to battle with.

LHB: Uh Ha...

LOBoH: Lets start with time. For some reason humanity decided to hide happiness in the past or reserve it for the future. How many times have you thought that happiness will only be allowed into your life when some future happening is met? As people get older they remove happiness from the present moment and place it in a memory. Once relegated to the past it is extremely difficult for me to do my job. I do not have access to the past or future. I can only bring happiness into the present moment - NOW

LHB: Since we started advertising your interview on the Little Human Being Blog we have been inundated with thousands of questions that little inhabitants of planet Earth would like to ask you. Many people are not too worried about happiness, it is the sadness that bothers them. "No matter what I do, no matter what I get, no matter how happy I am, there is always a hollowness that follows me..... (I) pretend to be happy, but something is missing in my life..."

LOBoH: That question brings us to the second part of the problem.... PLACE. Some time in the past mankind moved. You, for some or other reason, moved the seat of your existence from your heart to your mind. The mind is a very busy place. Filled with chatter, ideas, fears, hopes and aspirations. The mind is ever searching. As long as it exists it will strive for more. It is the nature of the mind to be unsatisfied.

LHB: Then we're doomed!!!!

LOBoH: The heart on the other hand is at peace, calm and complete. The heart is where love and contentment reside. Love unifies All.

LHB: So all I have to do is get into the present moment and shift from my mind to my heart?

LOBoH: It is a journey that will call upon all the gifts that you possess. You will need courage, patience, fortitude and more. It is no small task, but I believe you can do it.

LHB: Everybody knows you as the bringer of happiness. Why is is that you sometimes leave little humans for extended periods of time?

LOBoH: I never leave any being. Happiness is your birthright. I, like air, am always by your side. Just as the abundance of the universe is yours to claim, so too do I patiently await your acceptance.

LHB: Little Orange Bird of Happiness it has been quite a journey sharing your insights. On behalf of all the little human beings you serve I would like to thank you for all the happiness you have brought into the world.

LOBoH: Cheep Cheep...

Check-in next week for another mind altering interview with the Little Purple Bird of Wisdom..

11 February 2011

Where have all the wise old sages gone?
Where are the wise leaders who can teach and lead from the heart?
Are there any wisdom keepers who can lead humanity into happiness?

Maybe we should all follow politicians? Great orators who have dedicated their lives to serving their country, maintaining world peace and spreading joy in the world.
Maybe the great corporate machines have our best interests at heart. Creating products aimed at ending suffering, housing the poor and uplifting all of mankind. Surely their great power is not only aimed at maximizing profit?
Maybe we can find these great sages in books? Maybe they have receded into cyberspace? Maybe they have returned to their mountain retreats high in the Himalayas, deep in the jungles far far away.

But then. It happened. When nobody was looking. The party animal emerged out of thin air and jumped onto an unsuspecting victim.

With the party animal present, everything changed. The unspoken words; "tequila", "down-downs" and "more shooters" could suddenly be heard.

The party animal brings to its victim a slightly altered logic. Thoughts like, "why dance on the floor when we have tables" or "why keep all this money in my wallet when there is a fully stocked bar in front of me? or "the more i drink, the better I look on the dance floor."

The party animal is truly cruel.

Now, we all know the party animal. Each and every one of us has been mauled by the party animal at least once in the past. You may choose to forget, but the memory remains...

So, as you sit here reading this little blog, I am sure you already have plans for the weekend. I urge you to remember that the party animal knows no limits, knows no boundaries. Night clubs, bars, house parties and weddings are all frequented by the party animal.

10 February 2011

Any time of day you can walk into nature, sit down and wait. It doesn't take long for life to start happening. Ladybirds walking along the leaves, spiders weaving their webs, ants marching to their next meal and bees buzzing their way from flower to flower.

Earth, water, air and sunshine create the stage for a million shades of green. Cells divide, plants grow and flowers blossom. Insects and animals fill the spaces in between as birds fill the air with their sublime melodies.

Balance can be seen in every aspect of natures miracle. Harmony resonates through all the layers of existence.

It is midnight and the Little Artist is hard at work exploring the creative realms.

Searching for inspiration, waiting for creativity to make its way onto his blank canvass.

I can say that this evening brought no life changing realizations, but I did manage to find a few characters for tomorrows post. Nothing like a few bugs, a bee and an amphibian to get the party started.

Once upon a time, in a garden far far and away there lived a snail...
Not just any snail, Steve was the fastest snail that ever lived. Steve could cross a garden path in under 3 minutes. Steve could climb vertical walls and on a good day Steve could almost keep up with a slow tortoise.

There was not a snail that could keep up with Steve. Steve had the pickings of the freshest leaves and the ripest veggies in the entire garden.

Steve was the man!!!

Steve even invested in a rather sporty chitinous exo-shell to replace his calcium carbonate model.

All the girl snails loved Steve. All the boy snails envied Steve. Everybody wanted to be Steve the Speedy Snail!!!

BUT - inside Steve was not happy :(
Steve longed to be like all the other snails.

Relaxed, peaceful, slow and serene.

And so one day Steve made the choice to slow down. Steve made the choice to be a true snail. Relaxation entered his life. Peace became his friend. Slow became an ally and serenity became the place from where he lived.

The End

I went to a city once and was amazed to see so many people rushing around like Steve the Speedy Snail. We humans are designed to be still.Relaxation is yours to claim. Peace is your birthright. Serenity should fill your life.

Just like Steve, it is only a choice away.Your choice...

You can speed all you want, but remember it is only the snails that will love and envy you.

The LOVE BUG - (pronounced LURVE ) is that warm fuzzy feeling that bubbles up from within the man, woman, boy or girl that it has bitten.

The rather elusive Love Bug is not to be found in shopping malls, its does not frequent the night clubs where so many go in search of it. The Love Bug has no affiliation with food, alcohol or mind altering substances. Even Mother Nature with her abundance of life is not the source of the Love Bug's magic.

The Love Bug resides in the one place where Humanity has forgotten to look. That place within where infinity finds a home. That place within where Source finds its source...

The HEART of every single human being.

If you are searching for the Love Bug, let it be known that the Love Bug is searching for you. Take the time to search. Not in the past, not in the future, but right here, right now, for

Our special guest today is the Little Dancer. She was always very intimidated by the unknown. New responsibilities, meeting new people and sometimes just being alone made her feel uneasy.

One day this scared little girl sat down and decided to take a deeper look at herself. What she noticed was that she loved dancing. What she realized was that when she was dancing everything in the world made sense.

Happiness was there... Joy was there... Love was there...

From that day on, the Little Dancer made a conscious effort to dance her way through life. The Little Dancer danced whenever there was music, the Little Dancer danced whenever there was space.

Even when there was no music and no space she would go inside, listen to the music flowing through her heart and dance in that space of beauty that exists within us All...

04 February 2011

As the weekend approaches and we get ready to take a break from work and its responsibilities, a little spider has come to share his little bit of wisdom with us...

The web of life is the interconnectedness of all in existence. Just like a spider's web which is made up of many individual strands. Individually useless, but together they form a functional, beautiful unit. Remove, harm or break even one strand and the web begins to lose functionality.

If we damage or destroy many aspects of our little web of life we may end up with a web that no longer serves us as human beings.

Spiders have the ability to weave new webs when needed, but despite this gift they tend and care for their creation with care, attention and love.

Could it be that the greatest warriors are those little people who take a stand?
Take a stand not against an external foe, but rather against the the true enemies of all mankind.

Could it be that the greatest little warriors are those beings who take a stand against the internal challenges that face so many of us in this world?
Challenges like greed and envy, enemies like fear and resentment...

I believe that somewhere within each and every human being lies a Little Warrior. When faced with fear, when faced with any obstacle, you have a choice...

Either you run and hide, or you can embrace the little warrior, the courage within and face the challenges before you.

Based around a handful of short stories about little characters and their experiences. As human beings we posses potential beyond our wildest dreams. This blog is dedicated to the highest aspects of our humanity. Within each of us can be found the treasures of love, integrity, courage, humility, forgiveness and many many more

Join the Little Human Being Blog and follow our Little Characters as they make their way through life on this little planet of ours...

This is the Little Traveler - after a long time searching every corner of the sphere of existence she discovered that the source of her happiness lay in a most unexpected place...

I enjoy being close to the sea...
Sailing, surfing and diving keep me happy and I have a lot of time for crystals and minerals.
Bees fascinate me and I have a few swarms that, when not stinging me, provide me with honey.
